What is your favorite horror movie related item in your shop at this very moment and why?

My favorite horror related item is StrangleHold
While none of my photos are related or taken from any specific horror film, many have horror inspiration. This one depicts a creepy masked person literally reaching out of the photo to strangle you.

What is it about horror movies that inspires you and your art?

I have always liked horror movies, from way back when I was a kid and would peek through covered eyes when it seemed to scary. I enjoy putting together scenes or images that elicit those same feelings and emotions.
Why did you join the Etsy Massacre Team?
I joined Etsy Massacre Team to be a part of a community that shares that love of horror and work together to learn and help each other in this fun place known as Etsy.

Etsy Massacre Team - Shop of the Month for July 2012 - ChewsBrains

From Zombies you can add to your stuffed animal collections to zombies you can wear on your gruesome bodies check out ChewsBrains our Etsy Massacre Team - Shop of the month!!

 What is your favorite horror movie related item in your shop at this very moment and why?
My set of Bride of Frankenstein/Frankenstein Cameo Necklaces. My favorite movie of all time, seconded by the Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. I enjoy the other movies for their inspirational qualities, softness, and true musical scores. True culture!

What is it about horror movies that inspires you and your art??
EVERYTHING. The blood, gore, guts, and the realism that may of these movies portray. I miss the classics however. I miss when you used to be scared by the old black and white movies, the old monster makeup. It seems to take more and more to scare people these days. The best of these "old" movies was The Haunting of Hill House (1963) Directed by Robert Wise. A true psychological horror movie. No blood, no gore---just good old SUSPENSE!!!


Why did you join the Etsy Massacre Team?
 I joined because I thought it would be awesome to team up with a group who shared my love on older horror movies and new! So we could all promote out items and work together!

captain spauldings museum of monsters and madmen shoes!

Horror Movie light boxes

I created these new items they are horror movie light boxes, each is made from a sturdy repurposed cigar box, each comes with a energy efficient bulb and 3ft of cord so you can hang it on the wall or put it on a table. The bulb is easily changed by sliding off the front lens. I made light boxes that made sense to me, like the poltergeist light box, it is the scene right before carolanne gets sucked into the TV. The second light box creation is the scene where danny from the shining is cursing around the overlook hotel and runs right into the twins, I played with several photos in photoshop to get the effect !check out all of my scary stuff at  http://www.etsy.com/shop/sacchetto
